Reviews
Katherine Arnup, associate professor of Canadian Studies, Carleton University:
An excellent survey of the changing regime of lesbian and gay legal recognition, including the challenges that culminated in the legalization of same-sex marriage in 2005 ... In light of the tremendous legal changes that have occurred in the past two decades and the claims by many that lesbians and gay men have now achieved formal legal equality, Kelly’s examination is particularly timely and important.
